Why flushing matters
-
Prevents build-up of solids in your pipes
-
Keeps your system running smoothly
-
Quick and easy maintenance you can do yourself
Step-by-step instructions
-
Locate the flushing valve - usually at the end of the disposal line
-
Turn the valve handle to open.
-
Flush with clean water - let it run for 2-3 minutes until water runs clear.
-
Close the valve securely.
Tip: Do this once every 3 months (or more often if you notice slower flow)
Safety and care
-
Never flush chemicals, bleach, or disinfectants - they harm your worms.
-
Use only clean water.
-
If you see ongoing blockages or slow flow, call WaterFlow for support.
